    D&D 5E (2024) New Drizzt's Daughter Audiobook Betwixt Two Worlds

    Drizzt was originally a Dark Elf/Drow. In 1e, I believe it was the Monster Manual 2 (I'd have to look it up), Dark Elves were able to fight with two scimitars at the same time. Hence why Drizzt could fight with two scimitars at the same time. He may have become a Ranger, but he was still...

    New review critical of DUNE: PART TWO based on the depiction of Chani

    I think the new one is pretty kick'n as well. Different feel and tone though.

    Trailer Werewolves | Official Trailer | In Theaters December 6

    Goosebumps trailer looked scarier. Haven't any of these people heard of silver bullets. You'd think in a lab when they were getting ready to test their stuff, they'd at least have a bucketload of silver bullets and such just trained on the people in case things went wrong. Also...automatic...

    Trailer Official Trailer | Goosebumps: The Vanishing | Disney+ and Hulu

    Well, this one looks distinctly more scary than the other ones that came before it.

    New review critical of DUNE: PART TWO based on the depiction of Chani

    We can differ on our opinions. Tolkien would have hated LotR though, they did Sam and others dirty...dirty...dirty.

    User Name and Avatars: Origin Stories

    Well, I thought about using Snarf from Thundercats and using an anagram of Gary's last name...but found someone had snitched it...and used something a little close to it. Just kidding...Gary actually said he'd beat me over the head if I tried to make that my Username, and seeing he had a rubber...

    New review critical of DUNE: PART TWO based on the depiction of Chani

    So....I disagree with the review, but probably for different reasons than what you may think. 1. I liked the Hobbit Trilogy of movies. Why? See Below. 2. If you are a True Lord of the Rings novel fan, you cannot like the movie trilogy by Jackson as something that represents the books. It...

    D&D 3.x The 4E We Didnt Get.

    My thought is that it basically did come out by those who were pretty heavily involved with 3e and 3.5, someone even mentioned it in this thread already. That game is basically Pathfinder 1e.

    Which fantasy TRPGs do you think truly reflect the characteristics of firearms as Game Changers?

    In D&D, if you want more lethal firearms, it's pretty simple. Using modern fire arms, you give them damages such as 1d4, 1d6, and 1d8. The difference is that your character has their base HP and the rest of their HP. Base HP is what you roll at 1st level. Humans are 1HD creatures, and as...

    Explain it like I'm 5....what exactly has Manchester City done which is so heinous?

    My two nephews played Rugby. Quite the sport. They were pretty large kids, so it fit them well.

    Explain it like I'm 5....what exactly has Manchester City done which is so heinous?

    I probably know less about Cricket than @Morrus knows about Football. I admit, I've never followed Cricket at all, and don't even know the rules for it. I know it's MASSIVELY big in India, and I think it has a decent following in Australia. It has some popularity in Great Britain in some...

    D&D General Why the Great Thief Debate Will Always Be With Us

    Much of this post is weird. So, to extrapolate...I'll write the story of the longest name of a game in D&D that no one ever uses...and why. Back then, we did both. I've explained this numerous times, but I guess I'll explain it again. Then, with OD&D...a character could do all that. They...

    D&D General BBC archive videos of people playing D&D in the 1980s

    That looks like Steve Jackson and Friends! I could swear that's them. Big gamers. One of the best groups to play! Looks like some sort of interview they gave. Makes sense considering some would consider him (and Ian) the father of D&D in the UK (not all, some....). Of course, that's when...

    Explain it like I'm 5....what exactly has Manchester City done which is so heinous?

    So, Manchester City's Club (Football) has been under investigation and was charged a few weeks ago. Today I read that some are hypothesizing that it's trophies could be taken away, it could be kicked out of the Premier League, or even have it as drastic as being kicked out from playing at...

    Remember Lone Wolf...well...it looks like another RPG may be coming...

    So, a new kickstarter is out...that for Lone Wolf: Adventures in Magnamund. This one uses the rules to Dragonbane. WE've previously had the Lone Wolf RPG (D20) which had the Darklords and Magic of Magnamund Supplements. Then we had the Lone Wolf RPG which was more based on the books combat...

    have you guys seen the new transformers?

    I enjoyed it when I saw it. I saw it some weeks ago with grandkids. One of them knows everything there is to know about the Transformers universe and was informing me of what was right, what was wrong, what differed, what didn't, what was associated with the American version vs. the Japanese...

    D&D 5E (2024) 2024 Player’s Handbook is ‘Fastest Selling D&D Book Ever’

    Even without Digital sales I think the number that the PHB is the fastest selling is probably legit. I may question some of the other numbers, but I don't have any difficulty believing that. HOWEVER, part of that is probably not looking at the numbers that have sold through, but at the...

    D&D 5E (2014) Best D&D 5e alternate ruleset?

    Castles and Crusades is probably even MORE compatible with 5e stuff than it was with 3e, 3.5, Pathfinder, or AD&D! Part of that is probably because 5e (some would claim they just ripped it off of C&C) uses a very similar dynamic as C&C with it's skill challenges and the variable range (bounded...

    D&D 5E (2014) Best Third Party (not WotC) D&D Adventures?

    The original Kingmaker AP volumes (6 in total) were released for Pathfinder 1e, which isn't really convertible to 5e. They also are hard to find and can be extremely expensive when you do. This Hardback was originally made for Pathfinder 2e which isn't compatible with 3.5 overall. It also is...
